Discovery Zone

Here at the Alaska SeaLife Center, our staff is dedicated to learning more each day about Alaska’s marine ecosystems. We then share what we’ve learned with you, so that you can help us continue to understand and care for the ocean, its animals, and its resources.

What does it take to become a scientist?

In the Discovery Zone, everyone is a scientist. There are three steps in this important role:

(1) Observe the world around you, then…

(2) ask questions, then…

(3) find ways to answer your questions!
